Redforever: Just so I can solidify the fact that I'm not sympathizing with drunk driving, I'll throw this scenario out there....
option A) A guy arrives at a bar with his car because he got called out by his buddies while he was on his way home from work. They get drunk, and leave at 2am.
He's not thinking too clearly and gets told "transits done for the night". So he chances it and drives home, and kills someone you love on the way home.
option B) A guy arrives at a bar with his car because he got called out by his buddies while he was on his way home from work. They get drunk, and leave at 2am.
He's not thinking too clearly and gets told, don't worry man, the trains are running til 4 am now. So he hops on the train and goes home. Your loved one comes home safe.
I guess my point is, by your thinking, option (a) is more likely to happen, and that's where those of us that your snapping at coming from. We're NOT trying to sympathize, we're simply trying to come up with solutions that lead to less people being hurt or killed by drunk drivers, and that's what you should want too, right?
